Philippines moves closer to tapping native hydrogen for power

The Philippines is exploring the potential for native hydrogen as a clean energy source, with US-based startup Koloma conducting seismic surveys in Pangasinan and Zambales. If significant reserves are confirmed, the country could become the first to utilize geologic hydrogen for power generation.
Why it matters
Native hydrogen represents a potentially sustainable and indigenous energy source that could accelerate the global transition to clean energy.
The Philippines is eyeing becoming the first country to develop native hydrogen as a power source, as Colorado-based Koloma Inc. is set to complete its exploration work before the end of the year.
The report is a factual summary of government energy initiatives and corporate exploration activities.
